Weary Women.

Nothing is more thoroughly wrong
than the idea that woman fulfills her
duty by doing an amount of work that is
far beyond her strength. She not only
does not fulfill her duty, but she most
signally fails i'll il, and the failure is
truly deplorabie. There can be no sad
der sight than that of a broken down,
overworked wife and mother woman
who IS tired all her life through. If the
work of the household cannot be accom-
piished by order, system, and moderate
work, without the necessity of wearing
heart breaking toil-toil that is never
ended and never begun without making
life treadmill OF labor, then, for the
sake of humanity, let the work go. Bet
ter live in ths midst of disorder than that
order should be purchased at so high a
price the cost of health, strength, hap
piness, and all that makes existence en-
durable. The woman who spends her
life in unnecessary labor is by this very
labor untitled for the highest duties of
home. She should be the haven of rest
to which both husband and children turn
for psace and refinement. She should be
the careful, intelligent adviser and guide
of the one, the tender confident and helf-
mate of the other. How is it possible
for woman exhausted in body, and,
as natural consequence, ia
mind, also, to perform either of these
offices! No, it is not possible. The con
slant strain is too great. Nature gives
way beneath it. She loses health and
spirit and hopefulness, and, more than
all, her youth-the last thing in the
world that a woman should allow to slip
from her, for no matter how old she 10 in
years she should be young in heart and
feeling, for the youth of age is soma
times more attractive than youth itself.
To the oyerworked woman this green
old age is out of the question. Old age
comes on her, sere and yellow, before its
time. Her disposition is ruined, her
very nature is changed by the burden,
which, too heavy to carry, is dragged
along ss long as wesried feet and tired
hands can do their part. Even her affec-
tions are blunted and she becomes mere
ly machine-a woman without the time
to be womanly, mother without time to
train and guide her children as only
mother can, wife without the time to
ympethize with and cheer her husband,
a woman so over worked during the day
that when night comes her sole thought
and most intense longing is for the rest
and sleep that very probably will not
come; and, even # it shouts, that she is
too tired to enjoy. Better by far let
everything go unit nished, to live as best
she can, than to entail on herself and her
family the curse Of over work Sanitary
Magazine.

The Normandie Cattle.
western AgricuIturtst.

The Normandie breed of cattle has at
tracted the attention of our American
consul at Hayre, France, on account of
their superior dairy qualities of milk and
butter, together with their large aizs and
fine feeding qualities. He strongly rec
ommenis their importation in america,
and having looked into their ancient
breeding, their established herd book and
their large yield of milk, he sees a valu-
able improvement for the enterprising
American breeder, dairymen and farmer.
We were much interested in this wonder
full breed of dairy cattle while IN France
last season. Their rich pastures and fine
early cut clover hay has much to do with
it, but they do give an enormous yield of
milk, oftes MIXED three times day, and
their Normandie butter sells in London
and Paris markets at the highest price.
At the last fat stock show at Paris the
Normandie steers took both first and sec
erfd grand prizes over the Shorthorns and
other breeds in competition. There ID a
bright future for this breed of cattle in
America.

Fish and Ilares.

The Country Gentleman favors an Iowa
inquirer with the following bit of infor-
nation snent the culture of German carp
and the rearing of rabbits for market:
Carp culture is a new industry, and so
far has not become sufficiently establish
ed to make any market for the product
rs food. 1t is scarcely probable that it
will afford any extensive business, because
Americans are not much given to eating
fish, and we can not Judge here from the
reports from European countries, where
fish is eaten much more than here, on ac-
count of the numerous fast days. 1t
may provide home supply of desirable
food, where fish are scarce and of inferior
kinds. The carp is fish whose quality
for the table depends greatly upon cook
ing, and this is another reason why it will
probably never be favorite dish. II is
very easily reared, as it does not REQ uire
running water. and lives best in pouds
with muddy bottom, In Iowa, where
the winters are cold, it will hibernate,
burying itself in the mud, and remaining
there until the water becomes warm in
the spring. During this season it makes
no growth hence The rapid increase in
weight reported ia some casea, as where
the winters are mild and the ponds freeze
bat seldom, can not be expected in north
ern localities, where the fish feed only
half the year and get very poor through
the winter. The question of profit must
depend very much upon local circum
stances, but for domestic consumption
there is no doubt tLat pond stocked with
carp may be made quite a profitable in
vestmeht, and a local demand may no
doubt be encouraged for some consider
able part of the product.
The climate OF Iowa is favorable for
keeping and rearing the northern hare,
which is readily disposed of in the mar
kets, and reaches weight of pounds.
This hare is quite equal to the English
species, and when we'll fed has excellent
meat. 1t requires cover tor winter
protection-low growing evergreens and
